Command to Externalize In-Line Footnotes #15
Description
Add a command to convert all inline footnotes to externalized footnotes, by way of AsciiDoc attributes.
Some text.footnote:[Some note.]
becomes:
Some text.{fn1}
with this is added to the top of the file:
:fn1: footnote:[Some note.]
The new attribute name will be :fnNN: where NN is whatever number is the highest existing footnote number plus one.
Just in case the author has a habit of moving the exterized footnotes to a separate include file, we'll scan for all references ({fnNN}) to determine the highest number, not just definitions (:fnNN:)
Newly assigned numbers will not be zero-padded, even if the existing number(s) are.
